Little Goebbels in Alabama

An Alabama lawmaker who sought to ban gay marriages now wants to ban novels with gay characters from public libraries,
including university libraries. A bill by Rep. Gerald Allen, R-Cottondale, would prohibit the use
of public funds for "the purchase of textbooks or library materials
that recognize or promote homosexuality as an acceptable lifestyle."
Allen said he filed the bill to protect children from the "homosexual
agenda." "Our culture, how we know it today, is under attack from every angle," Allen said in a press conference Tuesday. Allen said that if his bill passes, novels with gay protagonists
and college textbooks that suggest homosexuality is natural would have
to be removed from library shelves and destroyed. "I guess we dig a big hole and dump them in and bury them," he said.
